Hundreds of officials retreated.

in Kyoto.

The news also came out in an instant.

In fact, the entire capital of Daxia is waiting for this melon to eat.

Gu Jinnian broke the law and killed innocent people indiscriminately, which caused the people of Jiangning Prefecture to live in dire straits. If such a serious crime falls on any one person, it will be the fault of the whole family.

Baiguan suppressed for four days.

Everyone was looking forward to whether the emperor would punish Gu Jinnian today.

Some people think that Gu Jinnian is the grandson of Lord Zhen Guo after all, so he might be punished with minor punishments and let it go.

There are also people who think that the Gu family has a big business and is afraid of the imperial power. Now that this kind of thing happens, the killer must be killed to teach the Gu family a lesson.

Later, Lord Zhen Guo went to court in person, and when he was on the road, he was seen by the people, which also caused countless controversies.

Now everyone is waiting for the court meeting to end before asking about the situation.

Plum Blossom Alley.

This is a famous alley in Kyoto. Large and small alleys are connected in a string. Because the area is too large, singers, sellers, children and the elderly basically all gather in this alley.

Some people were talking about Gu Jinnian.

But right now.

A figure came quickly, sweating profusely.

"There are results, there are results."

"It's all a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding."

The person who came here was a domestic servant in an official's family, and he still had some status among the people to work for the official.

Now that the court meeting has ended for an hour, the matter has already spread in the elite circle, and those servants and maids have heard about it.

After learning the result of the court meeting, it was immediately uploaded to the mouths of the people.

"The flood in Jiangning Mansion has been quelled. It was Gu Jinnian's suggestion. Now the price of rice in Jiangning Mansion has dropped to four taels of silver a stone. The imperial court has bought all the grain from the rice merchants and opened warehouses to release the grain."

The visitor breathed heavily and was out of breath at the same time, and told the people the news he had received.

As soon as this remark was said, it immediately caused an uproar.

"What the hell?"

"The rice price in Jiangning Mansion has returned to normal?"

"What, what, didn't you say yesterday that a stone of rice has risen to several thousand taels? Why is the price stable today?"

"Is this impossible? The grain and rice in our capital cost five taels or three dollars a stone. You said Jiangning Mansion four taels? Is it true?"

In an instant, the people were dumbfounded, they were still waiting for the result.

Unexpectedly, I heard the news.

"That's right, this is the result of the court meeting, all civil and military officials are stupid."

"It was Gu Jinnian who offered advice, but the Holy Majesty deliberately concealed it, for fear that some treacherous officials would collude with businessmen."

"Besides, those scholars who made trouble before have already confessed and pleaded guilty. Someone bought them and wanted to trouble Gu Jinnian, and even wanted to murder Gu Jinnian."

The latter opened his mouth and tried his best to explain that this is first-hand information, and he must show off his well-informed information.

"What kind of plan? Let the rice merchants in Jiangning Prefecture lower the price honestly? To coax the children?"

"That's right, where is there such a scheme? If you say it's down to a few tens of taels of silver, I believe it, but if you say it's four taels of silver, I don't even believe it."

"The price of rice in the famine land is cheaper than in our capital? Isn't this a lie?"

"Yeah, those rice merchants have such a good heart? With such a good heart, why did they go so early?"

The people don't believe it at all.

"Don't you believe it, I didn't believe it at first, but then I heard the housekeeper."

"His Royal Highness, he is really smart, do you know how he did it?"

"He first asked the governor of Jiangning County to cooperate with the merchants in private. On the surface, he was in the same boat and allowed these merchants to raise prices wildly."

"Then secretly send people to drive up the price of grain in the Jiangning mansion, and then ask myself to buy it. The price of grain has soared from 120 taels to 200 taels, 300 taels, 400 taels, and finally 600 taels a stone."

"At this time, let me ask you, if you were around a hundred miles away from Jiangning Mansion, what would you do?"

The man's face turned red. Facing everyone's doubts, he was very unconvinced, but he had to convince these guys today.

Follow him with questions.

Everyone said almost without thinking.

"It must be to sell rice."

"600 taels? I'll sell it for 300 taels."

"Sell it for a stone and I'll make a fortune."

"Yeah, don't say a hundred miles, even if it's three hundred miles, rent a few carriages, find a few young and strong people, do a ticket together, and sell ten stones of grain and rice. I will never worry about it in my life."

The common people answered subconsciously, this is a very normal idea.

"Correct."

"His Royal Highness wants this effect. All the people in the eighteen prefectures around the Jiangning Mansion will take out grain, and even some farmers will cut wheat in advance and send it to Jiangning Mansion."

"After arriving at Jiangning Mansion, do you know what happened?"

The man said excitedly, and at the same time whetted the appetite of the common people.

"What happened?"

"Say it quickly, don't whine about here."

The people opened their mouths and asked each other.

"His Royal Highness, immediately let the thirteen dragon boats rush to Jiangning Mansion, which are full of grain, and let the government open the warehouse to release the grain."

"Actually, the granary, including the grain transported, can only last for less than half a month at most."

"But these rice sellers from other places don't know it. They only know that the grain has been brought in, and the suffering people don't need to spend money to buy grain."

"Now all these foreigners are dizzy and dizzy. They delay a day, all the labor costs, but also accommodation, and even guard against some refugees robbing food. It can be said that they are on tenterhooks."

"So when I gritted my teeth, the price was reduced crazily. Someone took the lead in reducing the price, and immediately followed suit. The price dropped from a few hundred taels to dozens of taels, but the refugees didn't buy it at all."

"In the end, it dropped to seven or eight taels of silver a stone, and some people continued to buy it one after another. But they didn't buy much. They couldn't afford to delay, and finally it dropped to four taels of silver a stone."

The man spattered all over the place, as if he was in the scene, and he spoke with style.

"Do you know how many foreigners there are here? I heard that there are more than 400 small roads in Jiangning Mansion, all of them are people who transport food, and they all want to come here to make a fortune."

"As a result, the rice merchants in the Jiangning Mansion are all miserable. Under the government's strict prohibition on price increases, and thinking that there will be a bumper harvest in another month, they are worried that their grain and rice will become old rice, so they contact the government. Sign the bill."

"According to four taels and one stone, all of them were bought by the government. This is a memorial written by the magistrate of Jiangning County himself, and it was sent to the Holy Master yesterday."

"It is said that in Jiangning Mansion, those rice merchants have enough food for the people of Jiangning Mansion for three months, plus the food sent by foreigners, enough food for two months."

"It's been five months before and after, and counting the upcoming harvest, we can wait for another bumper harvest."

"The imperial court has sent people to the nineteen surrounding prefectures to order food, and the Ministry of Industry has sent people to repair all the main roads in Jiangning Mansion, and they can pass through at most three months. By this time, the imperial court can also transport grain."

"The people of Jiangning Mansion don't have to worry about food at all, and they will never starve to death again. Believe it or not now."

When the man said this, he took a deep breath. He was so excited to speak that he almost passed out.

Sure enough, all the words have been said here, and the words are so transparent and simple.

How could this group of ordinary people still not understand?

When they put themselves in another place and think about it, they take everything for granted.

"Hiss, His Royal Highness, you are really smart, to actually use this kind of move, okay, okay, okay."

"If you say it like this, I will believe it. If you say that the price suddenly drops, I will definitely not believe it. I can use this trick to believe it."

"Okay, first use high prices to attract the surrounding people, let them send food, and then open warehouses to release food. These foreign people cannot stay in Jiangning Mansion for a long time. They just came to do a quick silver transaction. If it takes a long time, The cost is high.”

"In addition, ordinary people like us are also law-abiding people. If we can make a lot of money, we will make it, and if we can't make it, we don't feel sad. Unlike those businessmen, they are all extremely treacherous. Okay, okay, this plan is really good."

"As expected of someone who can write eternal articles, His Royal Highness is truly talented and unparalleled in wisdom."

"If you put it this way, those scholars really have a problem."

The public's opinion of Gu Jinnian changed almost instantly, and they praised Gu Jinnian overwhelmingly.

Even had huge doubts about those bookmakers.

"There is indeed a problem. Haoduanduan suddenly gathered so many people, someone must be doing something secretly."

"That's right, that's right, I also think that, have you found out that we don't know anything about what's going on in Jiangning's mansion? How did they know all of a sudden?"

"That's right, one more thing is, according to the situation at that time, what does the increase in food prices in Jiangning Mansion have to do with Gu Jinnian?"

"Yeah, what's the matter with Gu Jinnian? Just insist on going to trouble with Gu Jinnian. There must be a conspiracy."

All of a sudden, the common people's perception of Gu Jinnian changed directly from an arrogant dandy to a victim who is dedicated to the country.

And Plum Blossom Hutong is just a microcosm.

Throughout Daxia Capital, there were such voices everywhere.

Just said that the people didn't believe it at all, but for some reason, Gu Jinnian's strategy was directly made public.

Theoretically, it is impossible to make this strategy public, and even if all the officials know about it, it is impossible to spread it to the ears of the common people.

Someone was deliberately spreading such a thing, and after the scheme was made public, the common people suddenly realized it.

Because there is nothing wrong with this strategy no matter from any angle.

However, the biggest trouble now is some scholars in Kyoto.

They gathered in groups to discuss this matter in their respective homes.

Zhang Fuzhong.

Three or forty Confucian scholars gathered, represented by Zhang Yun. At this moment, he was standing among the crowd, giving an impassioned speech.

He intends to encourage all scholars to go to the palace to appeal for grievances, and directly set up Gu Jinnian's ten crimes.

To complain for the common people, but also for those classmates.

But when Zhang Yun was giving an enthusiastic speech, several figures rushed over and told everyone the rumors outside.

For a moment, everyone was stunned.

"Is this the strategy offered by Gu Jinnian?"

"Hiss, this plan is really terrifying, it's a conspiracy."

"It's no wonder that the price of food in Jiangning Mansion has skyrocketed. It turns out there's another mystery behind it."

"Such a scheme is really ruthless and poisonous. It played tricks on the rice merchants of Jiangning Prefecture."

"This strategy is unheard of before. I don't even dare to think of it like this. It's too good for people's hearts."

At this moment, all the scholars were dumbfounded.

The reason why they dared to gather was to summon their friends to go to the palace to redress their grievances.

The main confidence comes from the fact that the people of Jiangning Mansion are struggling to make a living, and the people are suffering. Using this as a shield, they are not afraid of anything at all.

But now that the matter has been clarified, it was indeed Gu Jinnian who offered advice. Not only did Gu Jinnian offer advice, but he also perfectly solved the food disaster in Jiangning Prefecture.

It took five days before and after to put down the chaos in Jiangning Mansion.

This is simply unbelievable, even though they were full of hostility towards Gu Jinnian, after hearing this strategy, they couldn't help admiring Gu Jinnian in their hearts.

"Then what should we do next?"

"Do you want to continue making trouble?"

Someone swallowed and couldn't help asking everyone.

"What a fart. When I came here, my father specifically told me not to get involved. Duke Zhen was furious in the court, and His Majesty was also furious."

"These 400 or so students, I'm afraid they will all be unlucky. There are indeed some people who secretly instigated and instigated them, and now they all plead guilty. Those who plead guilty will undoubtedly die. The remaining 400 students may also be severely punished."

"If I dare to make trouble, I don't know how His Majesty will deal with it, but the Gu family will definitely not let me go."

"Do you still dare to make trouble?"

The other party spoke, and when he talked about this, his expression was slightly ugly.

Sure enough, after saying this, all the scholars present swallowed involuntarily.

All those who plead guilty and accept punishment shall be executed.

The remaining 400 people will be severely punished, which is terrifying.

The so-called law does not blame the public, let alone more than 3000 scholars?As long as something extremely bad does not happen, it is estimated that one eye will be turned a blind eye.

But now that His Majesty wants to punish severely, the Gu family will also take action. It is conceivable that there is something hidden behind this.

To be clear, the Great Xia Emperor was going to attack the literati.

"Ahem, Brother Zhang, I still have something important to do, so I'll go back first."

"Oh, brother Li, let's go back together, I have something important to do."

"Since it was a misunderstanding, brother Yu will leave first."

"It turned out that someone was sowing discord, so I said that something was wrong. I'll go back first and study it carefully."

At that moment, everyone spoke one after another.

They didn't dare to stay here any longer, for fear that someone would come to investigate later and find out that they had wrong intentions, and they were taken away together. Wouldn't that be a blood loss?
"Everyone, don't be like this, there is nothing to be afraid of."

"Everyone, everybody."

"Why are you all gone?"

Looking at the people who left one by one, Zhang Yun's expression was a bit uneasy. He was ready to impeach Gu Jinnian, but he didn't expect such a big reversal.

As a result, people's hearts were broken, and no one dared to challenge Gu Jinnian anymore.

When the person left, Zhang Yun was angry and annoyed, and finally punched the pillar hard, but the next moment he couldn't help frowning.

It hurts a bit.

Almost less than two or three hours.

The entire Great Xia capital was inexplicably quieter, especially the scholars, who were in small groups before, impassionedly insulting Gu Jinnian.

It's all silent now.

But being silent doesn't mean it's okay.

The Xuandeng Division, the Zhenfu Division, Dali Temple, the Criminal Department, the Tianyu Army, the Jingmen Army, and the Xuanwu Army are searching the entire city at this moment.

Anyone involved in this matter, or who has a major connection with this matter, will be arrested and interrogated.

The mighty army made people panic in an instant.

This was a search for scholars, but it was fine for the common people, as it did not disturb the common people.

As for the arrest of these scholars, it was not too harsh, but a bluff on the surface.

Take him away, ask him for his identity, and say a few words of scare, why your accomplices have already recruited, I advise you to explain clearly yourself, so as not to suffer in prison.

If you can be arrested, there must be evidence, and if there is no evidence, you will not be arrested.

You cooperate with me, I cooperate with you, you let me rest early, and I won't be too hard on you.

After speaking these words, if you still don’t know what to ask, go home.

If you really want to say something, you can say it slowly.

Generally speaking, it is mainly based on scaring. It is not realistic to really do something to this group of literati. After all, the matter is not big and there are not many participants. It is just a wake-up call for the literati.

Don't just spread rumors and talk nonsense, the instigator is hateful, the brainless person is even more hateful, and the stupid person must be more hateful than the bad.

A bad person has a purpose, and it is right to do so from his standpoint.

But stupid people are different, if you are arrested, you say you don’t know, it’s completely rhythmic.

It's okay to say that you are guilty, but the punishment is too harsh and inhumane.

It's okay to say you're not guilty, but I won't punish you, I can't swallow it.

So it depends on the emperor's mind, it can be big or small.

At this moment.

Inside the prime minister's mansion.

Prime Minister Li Shan, Minister of Officials Hu Yong, and Minister of Rites Yang Kai gathered here.

In addition to the prime minister, Hu Yong and Yang Kai are princes.

In fact, Li Shan can be regarded as a half prince, but he is the prime minister, and he definitely hopes that the prince will become the throne in his heart, but when dealing with things, he must implement it impartially and must not participate in any party disputes.

Otherwise, his prime minister is at an end.

Minister of Rites Yang Kai is very simple, he belongs to the Ministry of Rites, he is a great Confucian in the dynasty, the distinction between elder and younger is deeply rooted, and he supports the crown prince unconditionally.

The Minister of the Ministry of Officials was single-handedly promoted by the prince because he supervised the country.

The Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Rites are the two largest departments.

As for the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Punishment, the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of Industry, they have nothing to do with the prince.

The Hubu Shangshu has a very good relationship with His Highness King Qin, the Ministry of War also has a very good relationship with King Qin, and even the King of Qin has a good relationship with the Gu family.

After all, the King of Qin was brought out by Mr. Gu back then. Every year and festival, the King of Qin would go to Gu's house to give gifts.

If it hadn't been for the recent supervising of the country and so many happy events in the Gu family, King Qin would have gone there long ago.

The Ministry of Punishment has a very good relationship with Confucian officials, and the officials of the Ministry of Punishment cannot have a good relationship with them. In fact, the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty hate the Ministry of Punishment the most. When it comes to the Ministry of Punishment, many things are very troublesome.

The Confucian ministers are different. They have the authority of the censor themselves, which happens to be in line with the Ministry of Punishment, and they are very close.

The Great Xia court is actually three forces.

The power of the prince, the power of the King of Qin, and the power of the ministers.

And above the three major powers, is the supreme imperial power.

Of course, there is another force.

That's right.

It's just this thing, tacit understanding.

"Master, Gu Jinnian's strategy is really a miracle. The chess game I prepared for everyone was overthrown by one of his strategies."

"Your Majesty is furious today, I think things are going to be troublesome."

Hu Yong opened his mouth, he was still a little immersed in Gu Jinnian's strategy.

Today, they are preparing to suppress the power of generals, weaken the influence of the Gu family, and at the same time let His Majesty open up the treasury and send money to buy food.

But everything was completely overthrown by Gu Jinnian's plan, not just as simple as being embarrassing.

More importantly, none of the plans were implemented.

"It's not too much trouble."

"The real trouble is His Majesty's attitude towards the Jiangning County family."

Li Shan spoke.

It's nothing to be ashamed, even if he is scolded by the Duke of Zhen in the court, he doesn't feel anything.

This doesn't affect the overall situation.

But what happened next, he felt, was the real trouble.

"What does Xiangye mean? Your Majesty wants to attack those businessmen?"

Hu Yong opened his mouth and couldn't help frowning.

"not only that."

"Now, in the eyes of His Majesty, anyone who impeaches Gu Jinnian today is suspected of colluding with merchants."

"The matter in Jiangning County is extremely strange. There must be someone manipulating it behind it, and it is very likely that it is a remnant of Jiande."

"In the imperial court, there must be people who are not dead. They want to restore the throne, advocate opening the treasury, and buy food for disaster relief. They are all suspected."

"It's just that His Majesty won't take action against me. After all, there are still many things waiting for us to deal with in the court."

"But the signs have already appeared. Your Majesty wants to shake the mountain and shake the tiger. First kill the family, and then come to liquidate us."

"The two adults should think carefully about how to survive this calamity."

Li Shan spoke, he knew everything and knew what the emperor wanted to do.

But as soon as these words were said, the expressions of the two changed slightly.

"Master Xiang, it's human nature to open the treasury and buy food to relieve the disaster. We are also concerned about the disaster. Your Majesty will turn his anger on us. This is somewhat unlikely."

"I have a clear conscience, and I am not afraid of this matter."

The answers of Hu Yong and Yang Kai are somewhat different.

But Li Shan sighed, looked at the two and shook his head.

"Hu Shangshu, it's useless to tell your Majesty what you said."

"Yang Shangshu, you have a clear conscience, but how does Your Majesty know if you have a clear conscience?"

His two words silenced the two of them.

Between monarchs and ministers, the biggest problem is jealousy. Often because of jealousy, those who are demoted, exiled, and killed, have there been fewer generations in the past?

Not much at all.

"Dare to ask Master Xiang, what should I do now?"

Hu Yong opened his mouth and asked about the latter.

Hearing this, Li Shan looked in the direction of Jiangning Mansion with a calm voice.

"The only way at the moment is simple."

"Let the prince come forward and take the initiative to severely punish the family merchants and vote on his attitude."

"Now that His Royal Highness King Qin supervises the country, he is the least suspected of Jiangning Mansion's matter. How can someone who supervises the country hope for civil strife in the country."

"And the prince has another suspicion, which not only deepens the gap between him and His Highness King Qin, but more importantly, His Majesty will be suspicious of His Royal Highness."

"It's understandable to be suspicious of my subjects, but Your Majesty cannot be suspicious of the Crown Prince. His Highness the Crown Prince has already been dismissed from the responsibility of supervising the country. If you are suspected again, I'm afraid you will be punished one day."

At this point, Li Shan did not continue to talk.

Instead, he changed the subject and spoke directly.

"The prince must take the initiative to come forward, and please severely punish all merchants in Jiangning Mansion who sell high grain prices."

"Jiangning County, there are three famous families. If possible, one family can die. In this way, the suspicion can be cleared, and Jiangning County can earn tens of millions of people's hearts."

"In this way, the crown prince's position is as stable as Mount Tai. Although the two adults are suspicious, as long as the crown prince is stable, no matter how big the matter is, they will not anger the two."

Li Shan spoke.

Start the aftermath.

Now that the flood in Jiangning County is over, it is necessary to make a fortune for this great contribution.

Gu Jinnian's strategies can win public opinion.

But for all the refugees in Jiangning County, who is the most hated?These businessmen are the most hateful.

When they are full, they will thank Gu Jinnian.

But how long can this gratitude last?

Hatred can always be hidden in the heart. If someone came forward to kill these evil businessmen at this time, I am afraid that the people's will will be better than Gu Jinnian's advice.

This is the real aspiration of the people.

With the approval of the people of Jiangning County, the position of the prince will be more stable.

Sure enough, after Li Shan finished speaking, Hu Yong and Yang Kai's eyes lit up.

But soon, Hu Yong couldn't help frowning.

"The three great families in Jiangning County, the Zheng family, the Liu family, and the Xu family, are not easy to mess with."

"It is said that the Zheng family has a deep relationship with King Qi Lin, and is also the head of the three great families. It would not be a good thing for the prince to punish them."

"The Liu family can't do it either. The Liu family's ancestors fought with the Taizu and made great contributions. There are many officials in Jiangning County who belong to the Liu family."

"As for this Xu family, it's the family of Concubine Yue. It's not good if it's an apology."

Hu Yong frowned.

To become a famous family in a county, there must be someone in the court, or a great person in the ancestors, or even a certain vassal or court official.

It's hard to move anyone.

"At this time, do you still care about this?"

"The Zheng family is really hard to say, and there is no need to offend the Xu family. Although the ancestors of the Liu family had prominent generals, they have turned into loess after all."

"Besides, it's also from the military officer's lineage, which is just right."

"What needs to be done now is to gather the hearts of the people, make amends, and clear the suspicion."

"Furthermore, two Shangshu lords, if the Liu family doesn't do such a thing, will trouble be found on him?"

Li Shan's words were indifferent.

For a while, the two fell silent.

Li Shan is right, the fundamental problem is that they did something wrong, but the background is small and can be sacrificed.

The other two are not afraid to make trouble with them, but to make trouble with them will affect their own interests.

"Then the old man will go to the Prince's Mansion."

Hu Yong opened his mouth and said so.

"kindness."

"Hurry up, I'm afraid His Royal Highness King Qin will not let this opportunity go."

Li Shan made a sound.

After saying this, Hu Yong and Yang Kai didn't hesitate, they got up and left directly.

After the two left.

Li Shan drank tea alone, his eyes were extremely complicated.

And at the same time.

Inside the Qin Palace.

Indeed, as Li Shan said.

A group of counselors are also discussing how to grab credit.

"Your Highness."

"Now that the disaster in the Jiangning Mansion has been resolved, the people's grievances are unresolved. If this is the case, His Highness will go to the Holy Master to take the initiative to plead guilty and punish the family severely."

"For one thing, the suspicion that His Highness has nothing to do with this matter is further confirmed."

"Secondly, to win the hearts of the people and improve to a higher level."

"Thirdly, to suppress the power of the prince. Today, in the court, His Majesty is already dissatisfied with the six ministries, especially Prime Minister Li Shan, and Li Shan has a very good relationship with the Crown Prince. Take this opportunity to participate in the Prime Minister's Book. Once His Majesty dismisses the Prime Minister, this It means that His Majesty intends to replace the crown prince."

The counselor spoke.

His Royal Highness King Qin was elated.

"Who are the three great families in Jiangning County asking for trouble?"

King Qin frowned. Although he was happy, he still hesitated on the surface.

"Your Highness, all three families will participate, but punish the Xu family severely. Behind the Xu family is Concubine Yue. It is said that Concubine Yue has a very good relationship with the Crown Princess. In this way, the power of the Crown Prince can be reduced, killing three birds with one stone."

"His Royal Highness King Qin please go to the palace quickly, lest the prince's subordinates get there first."

The counselor directly decided who to trouble him with.

After saying this, King Qin nodded.

"it is good."

"My king is going to the palace now."

He uttered, a little impatiently.

My brother was withdrawn from the state prison, and now this kind of thing happened in Jiangning Mansion, there are many shadows in it, especially the shadows of the remnants of Jiande.

If he can take this opportunity to bring down Prince Yuzhong, it will be a great joy for him.

"Your Highness, you must remember that you must first punish your own crimes, since it is not good to supervise the country, and then invite the Liu family's crimes. You must not be too direct, lest Your Majesty will be suspicious."

The middle-aged counselor spoke out, but King Qin nodded, remembering it firmly, and then prepared his horse and entered the palace.

Kyoto is boiling.

And in Daxia Academy.

When the news came, all the Confucian masters of the academy were dumbfounded.

Knowing about Gu Jinnian's strategy, these great Confucian masters gathered together quickly to discuss this strategy.

After discussions and discussions, the final conclusion is one sentence.

Gu Jinnian, the city is terrifying.

At the same time, they also fully understood why Su Wenjing was so excited that day.

After seeing this strategy now, they fully understood.

"It's a good trick to attack people's hearts. Gu Jinnian is truly a genius, a genius."

"What kind of genius, this is simply a monster. I have lived for 80 years, but I can't think of such a plan. I heard that Gu Jinnian only took a stick of incense to think of such a plan. This is a monster."

"Oh my god, I never thought that the old man would meet such a good disciple in his old age."

"Good apprentice? When did Gu Jinnian become your apprentice?"

"That's right, Zhou Ru, what are you talking about, when did Gu Jinnian become your apprentice?"

There was a lot of discussion among the people, until someone shamelessly said that Gu Jinnian was his apprentice, which immediately aroused controversy.

"The old man has been friends with him for a long time, you don't understand, the old man will go to him now and accept him as a disciple."

Zhou Ru was very excited, but at the same time he didn't bother to pay attention to these people, so he went out directly to find Gu Jinnian.

"Zhou Ru, what are you thinking? Gu Jinnian is such a genius, how could he be your student?"

"Are you qualified?"

"He should worship me as a teacher, and I can teach him well."

Someone spoke and stopped Zhou Ru directly.

"You put your mother's shit, you still teach my disciples with that little ink in your stomach? Are you qualified?"

"Zhou Ru, you are insulting gentlemen, and you don't even look at yourself. How did you rank in the Imperial Examination in the Great Xia Dynasty? This old man was second in the list."

"What about the second place? The old man just didn't bother to show off his literary talents, so why did the old man become a great Confucian?"

"Is the second place amazing?"

Zhou Ru sneered again and again.

"It's ridiculous, I don't bother to show off my literary talents, do you have literary talents?"

"All in all, I have decided on Gu Jinnian, he is destined to be my protégé."

The latter spoke with a serious look.

"Your mother's leg is destined, I will see it today, how are you destined?"

"No. [-], right? The old man made you blind."

Zhou Ru became a little angry, and directly punched the opponent twice in the eyes.

"Zhou Ru, you don't talk about martial arts, you are a fucking sneak attack."

"Okay, shame on your face, the old man will fight with you today."

The latter gritted his teeth, and his jacket burst in an instant. Although he was old, he was full of tendons and senility, and he directly fought with Zhou Ru.

It caused everyone to be stunned.

"Stop hitting, stop hitting, stop it, stop it."

"The two people are almost two hundred years old together, how shameless are you?"

"Give me some face, Gu Jinnian, give it to me."

"Give your grandma a leg."

"Ouch, you two against one? It's not fair."

In the academy, four or five great Confucian scholars began to fight for no reason, while some masters stood silently on both sides.

They wanted to go up to fight, but the problem was that they couldn't. These great Confucians practiced martial arts every day, and they were not idle people. If they were not careful when they went up, they would be numb after being punched twice.

The farce of the great Confucianists in the Academy has not yet spread.

But what happened in Kyoto also spread to the ears of the students of Daxia Academy.

Inside Gu Jinnian's room.

With the appearance of one after another figure, Gu Jinnian was a little confused.

"What are you doing wild?"

inside the room.

Gu Jinnian was studying the books of sages and sages, when more than a dozen people suddenly came, he was a little dazed.

Wang Fugui, Xu Ya, Zhao Siqing, Jiang Yezhou, Yang Hanrou, and some students who were going to the church and other students all appeared outside the door.

"Brother Gu, you are a goddamn god."

"Jiangning Mansion has such a big mess, and it was actually put into chaos by you within five days. Your strategy is amazing, really amazing."

Wang Fugui was the first to speak.

He came in directly, dancing with excitement.

In the past few days, he has been worried about Gu Jinnian, but until today, with the news, Wang Fugui was completely relieved.

It was also a strategy that completely shocked Gu Jinnian's offer.

As a businessman, he understands how terrible Gu Jinnian's strategy is.

Have a clear insight into people's hearts.

Especially the businessman's thoughts, every move, was tightly controlled by Gu Jinnian.

"what happened?"

Hearing Wang Fugui speak, Gu Jinnian probably knew something in his heart, but he still asked curiously.

Wang Fugui didn't talk too much, and directly told all the things outside.

After finishing speaking, Gu Jinnian was neither excited nor happy. Instead, he continued to pick up the book and spoke slowly.

"That's it?"

"I thought you discovered some good places during your exploration."

"It made me happy in vain."

Gu Jinnian seemed very casual.

But he also heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. The success of the scheme means that from now on, no one will die in Jiangning Mansion.

"what?"

"What adventure?"

"Brother Gu, you're talking nonsense again."

Wang Fugui was a little embarrassed.

After all, Gu Jinnian's reaction was really too calm.

"Brother Wang, there's no need to make a fuss about such trivial things in the future, and attract so many people."

"It's just a big deal to bring chaos to Jiangning Mansion. In the eyes of some scholars, it may be said that Mr. Wen Jing offered his advice and gave me the credit."

"Nothing to be happy about."

Gu Jinnian disagreed.

He's being sarcastic.

A lot of people had already gathered outside the door. Hearing this, he was inexplicably ashamed and blushed.

"Brother Gu, don't say such things."

"This policy is what we have seen with our own eyes. It is Brother Gu's, and it is Brother Gu's."

"Brother Gu's plan, Brother Yu really admires it."

"Thousands of people in the Jiangning Mansion were saved because of this. I'm afraid Brother Gu's plan will spread throughout Shenzhou."

Jiang Yezhou walked in, and he was also very happy. Firstly, the Jiangning Mansion had completely quelled the chaos, and secondly, all the injustices that Gu Jinnian encountered would be turned into smoke.

I am really happy for my friends.

"Benefactor Gu saved tens of millions of people. This is an immeasurable merit. Brother Jueming has already edited a book and asked the temple to preside over it. He lit a longevity lamp for Brother Gu. May the benefactor live a long life of 300 years."

The voice of Juexin sounded.

His temperament is more agile, different from Jueming's dull and dull.

After everyone heard this, they were still a little envious. The Longevity Lantern of Xiaoyuan Temple is definitely not a symbol, but can really gather the power of faith and enhance personal fortune.

As for whether they can live longer, I don't know. Anyway, all the major forces in the world want to light a longevity lamp in Xiaoyuan Temple.

"You're welcome."

Gu Jinnian smiled, but didn't say much.

"Brother Gu, why don't you talk nonsense, let's go for a walk, go to the dining room for dinner, I specially asked someone to bring some good wine, everyone come and have a drink."

"After all, Brother Gu is a student of our Daxia Academy. It is a great honor to calm the chaos in five days. When we go out in the future, we can publicize it everywhere and have been classmates with Brother Gu."

Wang Fugui got up and dragged Gu Jinnian to drink.

The rest of the people also laughed and echoed.

Can't stand the enthusiasm of the crowd.

I can only go to the dining room with everyone.

It was nothing more than when I heard some strange movements on the road, which seemed to be a fight, but I didn't know the details.

After coming to the dining room.

Basically all the students came, as long as they didn't have a big enmity with Gu Jinnian, basically all of them were there.

Wang Fugui was also generous, took out a jar of good wine, and poured a bowl full of wine for everyone present.

Except for the three of Jueming, basically everyone poured their wine.

Su Huaiyu and Xu Changge also came.

The two are still aloof.

And often hide in the room, don't know what to do, anyway, don't deal with people very much.

But Gu Jinnian's face has to be given today.

Wang Fugui was born as a businessman, and the scene talks are one set after another.

"Everyone, today's banquet, one is to congratulate Brother Gu, and the other is to congratulate the tens of millions of people in Jiangning County."

"The chaos caused by the flood in Jiangning County is the pain of my great summer."

"There are countless casualties, refugees are everywhere, and monsters make chaos, which is infuriating."

"But our Brother Gu, the grandson of Duke Daxia Zhen, the son of Marquis Linyang, and His Royal Highness Gu Jinnian, the son of Daxia, put down the chaos in Jiangning County by himself."

"This is a great contribution to save the people from the fire and water. Such behavior is a model for my generation of scholars."

"It is a model of Daxia Academy."

"Come on, everyone, take up the wine in your hands and respect Brother Gu."

"I'll come first."

When Wang Fugui opened his mouth, his words were even more ambitious, flattering Gu Jinnian 360 degrees without any dead ends.

This made Gu Jinnian inexplicably embarrassed.

It's just that everyone didn't feel embarrassed, they directly raised their wine bowls and drank in one gulp, their eyes full of admiration.

In this way, everyone pushed the cups and changed them one after another, taking one sip after another.

Drink till the end.

All the students started to praise Gu Jinnian.

There were even some people who were drunk and went straight up, apologizing to Gu Jinnian, saying that they had been slandered by villains before, misunderstood Gu Jinnian, and the like.

I regret it now.

There were a few more ruthless ones, who came up directly and gave Gu Jinnian two bangs on the head. They drank too much and confessed in front of Gu Jinnian.

In fact, everyone had no hatred at all, it was nothing more than being spoiled by various wind reviews.

Now I've had some wine, and Wang Fugui has a sharp mouth.

Why, I know that some people have some opinions on Brother Gu, but as classmates, everyone should help each other, and there should be no barriers. Now the facts have proved that the previous group of people has problems.

But it's over, Brother Gu is broad-minded, and we don't have any substantive conflicts. After drinking this bowl of wine, we will be a family in the future, study hard, learn from Brother Gu, and serve the country and the people.

It's not easy to be a classmate, so I came to drink this bowl of wine.

With such heartfelt words, some people feel ashamed, and then one by one come to apologize, one by one to ask for forgiveness.

This made Gu Jinnian really embarrassed.

But I have to say that Wang Fugui's gathering today has indeed reduced the barriers in everyone's hearts a lot.

Most importantly, there are no conflicts of interest.

Indeed, there is no need to plot against each other. Besides, who is Gu Jinnian?
The grandson of the Duke.

The emperor's nephew.

Nowadays, he writes ancient articles and poems about the fate of the country, and even writes such a strategy to put down the chaos in Jiangning Mansion.

Gu Jinnian was able to handle things that the civil and military forces of the whole court could not handle.

The future must be a soaring sky, a soaring sky, a soaring sky.

Why don't you flatter such a person?

Offend if you don't flatter?

Brain disease is not it?
This reception, drinking to Haishi.

Gu Jinnian was also a little drunk.

But better than them, the rest need others to walk.

Gu Jinnian could barely walk back by himself.

After returning to the room.

Gu Jinnian mobilized force to force out the drink, and then let out a long breath.

The misfortune of Jiangning Mansion has settled down.

But the matter of Jiangning Mansion is not completely over yet.

He stood at the window, looking at the moonlight, with complicated thoughts.

There are still some things waiting to be done by yourself.

However, Gu Jinnian was also in deep thought.

Do you want to make trouble yourself?

At this level, I'm afraid the masterminds behind the scenes will be more honest, and making a fuss won't affect them much.

And I have formed a more deadly enmity with them, which is likely to attract stronger revenge.

Don't make trouble.

I feel uncomfortable again.

Some tangled.

Gu Jinnian also hesitated.

He expected the chaos in Jiangning County to end within half a month, but now it is over in five days. At the same time, he also understands that the mastermind behind the scenes did not continue to choose to cause trouble.

Otherwise, it can be strong for a few more days.

This is a signal.

Give yourself a signal of indecision.

However, maybe it was really drunk.

Gu Jinnian was a little sleepy.

Lying in bed.

Slowly fell asleep.

And this moment.

When Gu Jinnian fell asleep.

A beam of terrifying black air poured into Daxia Academy from Jiangning Mansion.

It's just that no one noticed.

Even the semi-saint Su Wenjing couldn't detect this kind of thing.

This is resentment.

A torrent of resentment.

It fell into Gu Jinnian's body.

The ancient tree is also at this moment.

Bloom bright light.
